It's gotta be my camera then. ![[Mad]](mad.gif)
Nope, it's clean as can be now. Went with a base coat/clearcoat (5 coats of clear). Did all my own prep, a friend laid the color for me. Dropped it off this morning, picked up this afternoon. For the record, I hate bodywork. I think the wet sanding was the worst!

Looks good. It does look blue in the picture, but I know of a few cameras that will add blue to the photo.

Yes, he can color match and do pieces off the car (or just blends, if it's still on). I will ask tomorrow if I can get a CA Fords "discount" going, if there's enough interest.

Let me know whatsup with that $550 job. I need a bunch of things touched up on my fastback, a new hood and trunk lid painted, so I might as well have the whole car painted. It doesnt need any body work. Pics in my sig. Let me know.
